Policy And Practice Environmental Policies in Saudi Arabia

Ahmad Al-Gilani and Seamus Filor

Journal of Environmental Planning and Management, 1997, vol. 40, issue 6, 775-788

Abstract: The experience of Saudi Arabia in environmental policies is relatively recent. However, the Government has established policy direction and administrative bodies to carry out its policy proposals. This endeavour to construct a framework for environmental policies has been hindered by several obstacles. The paper assesses government efforts in this field by reviewing environmental policy documents, the environmental administrative structure and the environmental decision-making process. A background of environmental policies and legislation is given in addition to categories of environmental agencies.
